GL Agora, como o outeiro da Alhambra comeza a xurdir dende o mesmo centro da cidade de Granada; sendo, conforme era, unha saínte da capital, el debe de ser en todo tempo cousa enfadosa para o capitán xeneral que rexe na provincia ter así un imperium in imperio, un cativo posto independente no mesmo medio dos seus dominios.

GL Outras crenzas pagás céntranse nos solsticios de inverno e de verán: na noite de San Xoán, cando o lume alapea nos outeiros, xúntanse herbas de propiedades especiais, e aqueles posuídos por malos espíritos deben bañarse en nove ondas sucesivas na beiramar de Redondela ou na praia da Lanzada na ría da Arousa; en decembro arde a acha do Nadal.
